Come explore the secretive, multi-billion dollar sugar industry and the epic court battle that exposes how sugar is grown, cultivated and sold. Big Sugar is a deep dive into the inner workings of the industry. Hear firsthand from the workers, lawyers and journalists exposing the lies, exploitation and ultimately the truth. We travel from the Oval Office to the nightclubs of Havana to the sugarcane fields of Florida. This is a story of our time, an untold story that focuses on human rights, lobbying, nutrition and the environment. Hosted by Celeste Headlee.

"...ho trovato un lavoro che si concentra soprattutto sul raccontare con grande affetto e lucidità una persona e un periodo storico che, per chi ha prodotto il podcast e per un numero sorprendente di persone...il podcast si conclude con una doverosa coda sulle teorie più o meno assurde che circondano la morte di Peter...Tanto e ben visibile. C’è tutto un pazzo mondo in cui vorrete perdervi. //// ...I found a job that focuses above all on telling with great affection and lucidity a person and a historical period that, for those who produced the podcast and for a surprising number of people...the podcast ends with a dutiful coda on the more or less absurd theories surrounding Peter's death...There is love. So much is clearly visible. There's a whole crazy world you'll want to get lost in."
